Linux runs like 90% of the world’s servers. You can’t even get half of Microsoft’s shitty software on AWS. Not to mention that development outside of C# (even that’s a pain in the ass to deploy) on Windows is an exercise in BDSM.
But sure buddy, whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep at night. I’m sure you’re making 10x more money than the rest of us as a (checks notes) photo and video editor 🙄
Well, you know, for starters I don't pull up posts about Windows and go through the comments flinging shit like Polar did here. But sure, I'm the troll for telling the troll his way isn't the only way.
I said desktop. You literally quoted it.
Linux server and Linux desktop aren't the same thing.
They totally are the same thing, it's called a Linux Distribution and you run the same exact software that runs on a server. There's not Debian Desktop and Debian Server, it's just one distribution. It's clear you're just looking to be dismissive without really understanding what you're talking about.
It's not like whatever software you can't do your job without would have to be written twice for Linux Servers and Desktops, it's the same thing. Where again is this distinction you're trying to make?
The distinction I am making is that most software developers don't consider Linux Desktop a real OS, and that's why Linsux nerds are begging for developers to release Linux versions.
So nuanced and articulate
